Taken half an hour ago or so. Hard to be so close and know I'm still two days away.

Looks like an awesome day :)
Doug,
Force the pilot to land at Shelter :smt044

Two days sounds a lot better than 5-10 years with good behavior ;)

Leaving within an hour for bait and some groceries before heading up.  Will arrive this evening and plan to evaluate conditions in the morning before making a plan for Thursday.  Friday and Sat are looking nice. 

See you all up there.

Look forward to hooking up and seeing you up there. Will be rolling in on Friday morning. :smt006

What time are you heading out Jim?

Hope to be on the road around 7pm or earlier
I'll rest when I'm dead!

I've been in NYC for a week now with 2 parents fresh out of the hospital.  I was hoping to get back in time to make Shelter Cove (and Michelle's B-Day Friday) but it just ain't in the cards.
I want to thank AbKing for the opportunity to show-off The RTM Abaco 4.20, Tiny for hauling it north and wish all of you a safe weekend and the best of times. 
Whack 'em,

PS   I need to cancel a 2 night stay at the Oceanfront Inn for Friday and Saturday, Anybody need a room? Just let me know.  I think the rate was under $100 per night.

Would it be possible to get just the Saturday night? Gotta drive back to WA on Sunday and it'd be nice to sleep in a room before driving.

For you guys that have done GS crabbing in the past, how many feet of water are you dropping your pots in?  I need to know how much rope to bring with me.

Thanks!

Between 40ft -60ft so bring 100ft rope just in case  :smt001

Glad to hear your folks are out of the hospital, Spike.  I'm bummed you can't make it, but you'll be well represented.  Talk to you soon~   :smt001

OK I think I have an assortment of everything for the rockfish and salmon  BUT the one thing I dont' have is bait for mooching.  FW in Sacto was out of chovies.  They had sardines but I passed.  I still have another day before I head up.  What frozen bait should I bring?  They also had two more double deep sixes if anyone really needs one. Let me know I think I can sneak in another run up there if need be.
